Anyone raised these? I can't say they really appeal, but I've read they make good meat birds. I'm trying a bit of everything this year to see what works for us here. So far, I've got Dorkings, Croad Langshans, Poulet not-de-Bresse, Light Sussex and Salmon Faveroles. Don't really want monster Jersey Giants or Brahmas, can't find any Ixworths. What other table birds are good (I want to try some Ross/Cobb types for for comparison, but I can't take 50 at once at the moment)

That's good to know. My supposedly calm Dorking (who is just eight weeks old) went for my shoes when I caught his run mates for ringing. I plumped for some eBay Ixworths in the end, but the geese and ducks will vacate the incubator in a couple of weeks, so I might give these a go next.
